1 Large-Scale Ground-Mounted Solar Photovoltaic Installations Addition to Section 4 - Special Use Regulations 4.4 Large Scale Ground-Mounted Solar Photovoltaic Installations Purpose The purpose of this bylaw is to control the creation of new large-scale ground-mounted solar photovoltaic installations (LSGMSPI) by providing standards for the placement, design, construction, operation, monitoring, modification and removal of such installations that address public safety, minimize impacts on scenic, natural and historic resources and to provide adequate financial assurance for the eventual decommissioning of such installations. The provisions set forth in this section shall apply to the construction, operation, and/or repair of large-scale ground-mounted solar photovoltaic installations. This section applies to large-scale ground-mounted solar photovoltaic installations proposed to be constructed after the effective date of this section. This section also pertains to physical modifications that materially alter the type, configuration, or size of these installations or related equipment Definition As-of-Right Siting: As-of-Right Siting shall mean that development may proceed without the need for a special permit, variance, amendment, waiver, or other discretionary approval. As-of right siting is subject to site plan review to determine conformance with local zoning ordinances or bylaws. Development of a large scale ground mounted solar photovoltaic installation in any area other than a designated location shall require a special permit in accordance with the Granville Zoning Bylaws in addition to site plan review. Building Inspector: The local inspector of buildings designated by local bylaw charged with the enforcement of the Zoning Bylaws. Building Permit: A construction permit issued by an authorized building inspector; the building permit evidences that the project is consistent with the state and federal building codes as well as local zoning bylaws, including those governing ground-mounted largescale solar photovoltaic installations. Designated Location: The location designated by the Granville Town Meeting, in accordance with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A, Section 5, where ground - mounted large scale solar photovoltaic installations may be sited as-of-right. Said location is McCarthy Rd., Granville, MA shown on Assessor s Map 21, Parcel 47 pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A Section 4. This map is hereby made a part of this Zoning Bylaw and is on file in the Office of the Town Assessor. 1

2 Large-Scale Ground-Mounted Solar Photovoltaic Installation (LSGMSPI): A solar photovoltaic system that is structurally mounted on the ground and is not roof-mounted, and has a minimum nameplate capacity of 250 kw DC. On-Site Solar Photovoltaic Installation: A solar photovoltaic (PV) installation that is constructed at a location where other uses of the underlying property may occur. Rated Nameplate Capacity: The maximum rated output of electric power production of the Photovoltaic system in Direct Current (DC). Site Plan Review: review by the Site Plan Review Authority to determine conformance with local zoning ordinances or bylaws. Site Plan Review Authority: For purposes of this bylaw, Site Plan Review Authority refers to the Town of Granville Planning Board. Zoning Enforcement Authority: The person or board charged with enforcing the zoning ordinances or bylaws General Requirements for all Large Scale Solar Power Generation Installations The following requirements are common to all large scale solar power generation installations whether or not to be sited in designated locations. a.

All buildings and fixtures forming part of a solar photovoltaic installation shall be constructed in accordance with the State Building Code. b. Building Permit and Building Inspection No large scale solar photovoltaic installation shall be constructed, installed or modified as provided in this section without first obtaining a building permit from the Town of Granville. 1. Fees The application for a building permit for a large scale solar photovoltaic installation must be accompanied by the fee required for a building permit. The site plan review authority may additionally require a review fee in accordance with its regulations. c.
